1651-AB20 201804 Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions 1651 U.S. Customs and Border Protection USCBP 1600 Department of Homeland Security DHS Procedures for Debarring Vessels From Entering U.S. Ports

The Immigration and Naturalization Act requires U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to debar from entering U.S. ports any vessel owned or chartered by an entity found to be in violation of certain immigration laws and regulations relating to the performance of longshore work by nonimmigrant crew members.  This document proposes to amend CBP regulations to establish procedures that address how CBP determines the duration and scope of a debarment and how entities may request mitigation of the debarment.  This document also proposes technical corrections to CBP regulations regarding the performance of longshore work by nonimmigrant crew members in the State of Alaska.
